Bucilla 85451 Christmas Felt Aplique Bath Ensemble, Peek-A-Boo Santa Review

Just to clarify on the response from the previous reviewer. Of course this is a make-it-yourself kit. Bucilla is known for these kits and they shouldn't be penalized because the website didn't clarify this. I have over 50 of these lovely creations and consider them heirlooms to be handed down and treasured for generations to come. They certainly take time, but that's sort of the point... Within the "crafter's world" these kits are known for their excellent quality, clear instructions, washability (no dry cleaning required) and lasting bright vibrant colors. And no, I don't work for the company... :)

Very cute stocking but I didn't realize that you had to actually know how to sew or have a sewing machine. I thought it was preassembled. But, once I got a friend who sews to put it together my daughter loved it. I guess I should read the description a little better next time.

I've been looking for this type of a cross stitch for a while. I didn't want anything too showy, because the saying itself is enough. I was very pleased to find it on Amazon, as I already have my info set up and all. The shipping was UPS, so it got here quickly, and I am glad for that. I know I'll be sticking with Amazon for a long while!

Dimensions Counted Cross Stitch, Music Is Harmony Review

Dimensions Counted Cross Stitch, Music Is Harmony
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a really cute cross stitch. I am halfway finished and am really enjoying it. It is turning out really well, yet the fabric is so large that there are little gaps between each of the stitches. Hopefully by the time I am done it will look more solid. My only complaint so far is that there is not thread sorter with this kit. Being that it was a kit I assumed it would come with a thread sorter. Not a huge deal, but a slight inconvenience as I then had to go find a store that sold them. It is a very nice pattern though and I look forward to finishing it!

I have not yet started this cross stitch but can't wait to! I am writing this review with the purpose of letting the buyer know that there is no thread sorter included in this kit. (Just a little fact I wish I had known ahead of time.) Also note that Joann Fabrics takes an extremely long time to ship, and the product took 2 weeks to get to my house, which was 2 days over the latest arrival date. Other than that, the products arrived in great condition!

This kit was so much fun! I've completed many of these in the past, and Dimensions kits are always wonderful to work with - this was no exception! Everything was intact, well marked and good quality. I had more than enough thread and beads to complete, even with some extra embellishments. The stocking turned out so very cute!

Dimensions Counted Cross Stitch For Dummies Hummingbird Floral Review

Dimensions Counted Cross Stitch For Dummies Hummingbird Floral
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this one and another kit from the store the other day; I decided to do this one first since it was the simplest one.
My cross stitch background: my aunt embroiders, thankfully, and she guided me through a stamped cross stitch when I was little. I chose to do this one on my own.
However, I found first of all that the needle was missing; thank goodness I bought a second kit, otherwise I would have had to go and get a new needle. The instructions were okay for the most part; they show you all of the stitches, but their version of doing the french knot is not very good - I had my aunt show me how to do that. In addition, the charcoal thread kept breaking on me while I was backstitching the outline, so I didn't have enough to finish the french knots.
Overall it's decent enough for beginners, but probably a good idea to have someone on hand who knows how to embroider or do similar needlecraft on hand. Comparing this to other cross stitch kits for beginners, I'd say this one is roughly average at best - but at least it's cheap.

I just love doing these as a project. I can actually complete one in a week while watching TV and not fee so guilty! I give them away as gifts, people love getting something made with love and have a vintage feel (like grandma made). Also, the cases are a pretty good quality. I was surprised to find them at such a bargain, as I've paid up to $15 for a set in the past.
Their easy for any level of crafter too! The directions included are very simple to follow. You do have to buy the thread, and embroidery hoop. Not a big deal to me.
